Week 5 ups and downs

This week the Penguins started off on fire, winning 6 straight games before failing to obtain a single point for the remainder 3 games.  Our owner Sedinpower said this of the back end of the week  "The guys were playing well together and making some nice plays but at the end of the day you have to play defense well to win in this league and that is where they faulted, leaving their goalie to fend for himself multiple times."

The first line had their best week yet going 3-0 and looking good in the process.  The newly acquired Benzo proved to be a great pickup for Center, as he notched 9 points and 3 Wins in his first week with the team.  Weapon had a breakout week netting 13 points and was named LGHL's 3rd star of the week.  The second line continues to remain the most consistent going 3-0 and holding a 10-4-1 record overall.

Sedinpower continues to make excellent move to help propel his team forward, completing the following trades.

What stands out to me is Mesmerize for Sudzy, while mesmerize is a solid two-way center in his own right, Sudzy has a much higher ceiling and his skill level is top notch, he also has had success with several line-mates on this team so look for him to make an immediate impact on the week coming up.  Giddeus is a solid two way defender, and he will look to shore up the 3rd line defense that was lacking shut down ability.  And just today we have inside information saying that there is one more move to be made for a depth forward position.

All in all, the Penguins continue to fight there way into the heart of the playoff push, look for them to have another strong outing in week 6 with the new additions making an impact right away.

Stay tuned for a Mid-week update and an AHL update as well.
